Term of the Day

[browngirl]

I love the term "Embarassment squick". I love it because it perfectly encapsulates a concept that previously took at least sentences if not paragraphs to describe, and because by discovering it I found out I wasn't the only person who suffered from it. It could only be better if it were just one word, but then I can't think of any portmanteaus that don't sound dinky, so I guess it couldn't even be improved that way.

Are there any particular terms or words you really like?
